5.0 out of 5 stars
Good Stuff,
This review is from: Revolt Against Modernity: Leo Strauss, Eric Voegelin, and the Search for a Postliberal Order (Paperback)
McAllister really seems to understand Strauss, which is more than can be said about many who write about Strauss (scholars and otherwise). This will serve as a useful antidote. And of course, Voegelin has long been neglected, so any work treating him seriously is a welcome addition. This should be in the library of serious political theorists.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Ted V. McAllister's account of Machiavelli and Plato.,
By matthew.wagner@stu2.hillsdale.edu (Detroit, Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Revolt Against Modernity: Leo Strauss, Eric Voegelin, and the Search for a Postliberal Order (Paperback)
In having Dr. Ted V. McAllister as my Western and American Heritage Professor at Hillsdale College,I was able to fully appreciate his historical views on a personal basis. His knowledge of Niccolo Machiavelli and modernity, and the philosophy of Plato relating to Western history is unparalled. His views in his book are presented in a true and indepth fashion. After being his student for two semesters, I will truely miss his insight and knowledge pertaining to historical matters.
